Himalaya- king of hill

Being the world's highest mountain chain, the Himalayas is characterized by its great height, complex geologic structure, snowcapped peaks,
large valley glaciers, deep river gorges, and rich vegetation. Himalayas is a magnificent monument on the Earth. It represents the awe-inspiring power, beauty,
and grandeur of Nature. It constitutes the greatest attraction to adventurers, climbers and trekkers throughout the world. Historically it has a lot of relevance

But that barrier didn't stopped individuals from pursuing adventurous journeys to explore the unknown side of the mountains. People traveled for religious and
trade purposes.

The Himalayas have the third largest deposit of ice and snow in the world, after Antarctica and the Arctic.[11] The Himalayan range encompasses
about 15,000 glaciers, which store about 12,000 km3 (3000 cubic miles) of fresh water.[12] Its glaciers include the Gangotri and Yamunotri (Uttarakhand) and Khumbu
glaciers (Mount Everest region), and Zemu (Sikkim).
Owing to the mountains' latitude near the Tropic of Cancer, the permanent snow line is among the highest in the world at typically around 5,500 metres
(18,000 ft).[13] In contrast, equatorial mountains in New Guinea, the Rwenzoris and Colombia have a snow line some 900 metres (2,950 ft) lower.[14]
The higher regions of the Himalayas are snowbound throughout the year, in spite of their proximity to the tropics, and they form the sources of several
large perennial rivers, most of which combine into two large river systems
